2005 Hit-and-Run Continues to Haunt Murray State's Lambda Chi Alpha

Wrongful Death Lawsuit Against Murray Fraternity

A wrongful death lawsuit against Murray State University's chapter of the fraternity Lambda Chi Alpha involving the son of a state representative may be nearing an end, a report said Saturday.

Police said Lambda Chi Alpha brother Harrison Yonts had left his frat house in November of 2005 when he struck student Nadia Shaheen with his car. Yonts, the son of North Carolina state representative Brent Yonts, has already been convicted in Shaheen's death, and will likely serve at least 17 years of a 20-year sentence in prison.

The latest lawsuit claims that Lambda Chi Alpha and its brothers lacked responsibility for giving alcohol to Yonts. Yonts admitted to being drunk the night of the accident.

Former Lambda Chi Guilty of Murder

Jury Finds Lawmaker's Son Guilty of Murder

Harrison Yonts, Lambda Chi Alpha brother, and son of Kentucky State Representative Brent Yonts, has been found guilty of murder. A jury convicted him of murder, driving under the influence, tampering with evidence and leaving the scene of an accident. Yonts is pictured at left.

Police alleged that Yonts, at that time a sophomore
at Murray State, struck 62-year-old Nadia Shaheen with his silver Lincoln LS the morning of November 11, 2005. Her body was found along the road later that day. Shaheen dies of trauma to the head.

In move right out of CSI, police linked evidence at the scene to Yonts vehicle. There was a piece of broken mirror on the scene, and marks on the vehicle that matched the victims pants.

Shahee was set to graduate in December 2005 as a masters student in the Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages program. She was a native of Egypt, and was struck within a few hundred yard from her home.

Yonts had left a Lambda Chi party around 2 am and was intoxicated when he struck the victim. Lambda Chi Alpha was immediately suspended after the incident.
